Google Network Sites Not Accessible - anyone?

[The_Big_K]

CEans,

I've been facing a strange problem since yesterday. Google.com / Google.co.in / Gmail.com are not accessible through my BSNL broadband connection.

Is it a common problem all around or Google doesn't like me ?

Hey Biggie

Have you tried accessing them through proxy servers ala kay-proxy.com? What about Google.de? What about blackle.com?

Can't access any of the GOOG sites. YouTube is now accessible. Blackle is not Google's, so I can access it.

Can't access through the proxy server that you mentioned

Even Gtalk client refuses to connect! Meh!

Shucks!

How about - 64.233.167.99 in your browser? One of the Google IPs - if this works, then it could be a DNS issue with your broadband ... you could then always switchover to one of the public DNS Servers like - 4.2.2.2

Ohh.. and btw, it is k-proxy.com

O Boy! IP worked! Looks like a DNS issue with Broadband.

The problem has been solved! Thanks Kidakaka

yeah i was facing the same problem. i thought this was a server issue too but didn't know of any public dns server so got nowhere. before i could get fed up and sit down to correct this the dns issue got resolved(maybe they updated the dns server or something like that). anyway _k now the dns server for bsnl broadband is working fine....ie allowing me to access google sites....so maybe u can switch back to ur old dns server if u want to.

All other isp's dont hav any prob with goog.
bsnl as usual claimed its google fault,but after survey google declared its only with bsnl,(may be with some of the affected servers,xpection 4 kidakaka's server)

There are around 18 different versions of black google online. The best one Ive found is www.cleanblack.com. Cleanblack is the only version that allows you to change the text colors of the google search results. Try it yourself by going to www.cleanblack.com/theme/

I think default google theme is the best
